If you've done any reading about the genre at all then you've heard that rockabilly is the result of melding country music and blues music. Certainly there's a lot of truth to that idea, but it really simplifies things far too much. Several forms of music evolved and met in the rockabilly confluence, not the least of these was the rhythm and blues, or R&B music of the 1940s and early 1950s. If the blues and country gave rockabilly a starting base, it was R&B in particular that infused the genre with "rock". R&B primed the rockabilly pump and really gave it its energy.
